Operating Instructions

Remote Control — Each of the pair of remote controls is a miniature  
radio transmitter powered by a +12 volt battery with a typical range of up  
to 100 feet. Obstructions, radio interference, cellular transmissions or a  
weak remote control battery may reduce the range or interrupt  
transmission. (If the system does not immediately respond, release and  
press the button again. This works better than holding the button down.)  
The second remote can be used by a second driver, or kept as a spare.  
Additional remote controls or batteries can be purchased from any  
authorized Avital Dealer, or by calling Avital Technologies toll-free at  
1-800-253-0334 (within the U.S.) or 1-847-215-2233.  
n
To Arm The System Your alarm system can be programmed for  
active or passive arming. Active arming means the system can only be  
armed with the remote control. Passive arming means the system will  
automatically arm itself. See the "Programming Table for system  
Features" on page 9.  
n Active Arming. Press remote button #1 for 1-2 seconds. The siren  
will chirp twice, the parking lights will flash twice, the doors will  
lock, the LED will flash slowly and the starter will be disabled.  
n Passive Arming . Turn the ignition key off, exit the vehicle and close  
the doors. 30 seconds after the interior light turns off the siren will  
chirp twice, the parking lights will flash twice, the LED will flash  
slowly and the starter will be disabled (at any time during passive  
arming, the system can be actively armed).

a lost or stolen remote control, you can activate the Protected Valet Mode  
to bypass (shut off) the alarm functions.  
BE SURE TO ASK YOUR DEALER TO SHOW YOU WHERE THE VALET  
SWITCH IS LOCATED.  
n
Protected Valet Mode You can place your system in Protected  
Valet Mode when your car is being serviced by mechanics, car wash

functions are bypassed to prevent undesired or accidental arming.

Keyless Entry in Valet — While the system is in Protected Valet  
Mode, you can still use your remote control to lock and unlock the doors  
as well as activate any optional accessories such as trunk release or a  
remote engine starter.  
User-Programmable Passive Door Lock — The system will not  
automatically lock the doors when the system passively arms to prevent  
the keys and remote from accidentally being locked in the vehicle. If you  
prefer, you can easily program the system to automatically lock the doors  
every time the system passively arms. See the "Programming Table for  
system Features" on page 9.  
n
User-Programmable Ignition-Controlled Door Lock/Unlock  
— For the ultimate in security and convenience, the system will  
automatically lock the doors when the ignition key is turned on or when

turned off. This feature can be programmed on or off. See the  
“Programming Table for system Features” on page 9.  
n
Remote Panic with Safety Locks™ — Press and hold button #1  
for 3-4 seconds. The siren will sound continually and the parking lights  
will flash on and off. If the ignition key is off, the doors will unlock. If

How to Interpret the Chirps and Parking Light Flashes  
When you press the remote control buttons, the system will respond with  
chirps (unless you have the chirp muting feature turned on or the system  
is in Valet Mode) and flashes of the parking lights to indicate the system  
status. An explanation of these chirp/flash acknowledgments follows:

Instant Remote Control Code Deletion — In the event of a lost  
or stolen remote control, all remote controls can be erased from the  
system's memory to prevent unauthorized system operation. See the  
"Programming Table for Remote Controls" on pages 10 and 11.  
n
n
One-Step Remote Control Code Learning — The system can be  
programmed to accept as many as four separate remote controls. See the  
"Programming Table for Remote Controls" on pages 10 and 11.  
Alarm State Memory — If your vehicle's battery is disconnected and  
later reconnected, the system will automatically return to its last state  
prior to disconnection, whether it was armed, disarmed or in Protected  
Valet Mode. For example, if a mechanic disconnects the battery while  
the system is disarmed or in Protected Valet Mode, he won’t trigger the  
system when he reconnects the battery. If a thief interrrupts power while  
the system is armed, and reconnects it, the system will instantly sound,  
the parking lights will flash and the starter will be disabled.
